Poisons is a bluff-based card game in which players have to carefully weight their risks to earn points. Each turn, players secretly add a card from their hand to each opponent's drink: an innocuous liquid or a deadly poison. When everyone has their cup filled, each player decides whether they will drink the contents of their cup. Those who don't dare to sip the mixture gain only a minimal amount of points. Those who drink their cup score the number of points revealed at the beginning of their turn, but beware if there's a single dose of poison in the glass, they get nothing! The game supports 3 to 8 players and takes around 15 minutes to play, which makes it a great fit for a casual game session or as a starter game.

Each copy of the game includes the following components:

  • 66 scoring tokens worth 1, 2 & 5
  • 12 special cards
  • 8 sets of 15 cards
  • Rules
